Diabolique

1955, dir Henri-Georges Clouzot w/Simone Signoret, Véra Clouzot, Paul Meurisse, 117 min, DCP

In this classic film, unquestionably one of the greatest and most surprising thrillers of all time, an abusive man’s mistress (Signoret) enlists the help of his wife (Clouzot) to do away with him. For the uninitiated, to tell more about the plot would be to do a disservice… Trust us, if you are a mystery fan and you have never seen this film, you want to come in as uninformed as possible.
